LJ78,

I think you will find they all do it. When mine is cold the car feels like it's surging at around 50 kph with light throttle. This only lasts for the first 5 minutes of driving until warm. Having larger injectors makes it worse and when reversing out my garage in the morning I need to hold the brake for a few seconds before moving or the car jerks quite badly.

I think this has something to do with the fuel injection map when the engine is cold.

Thanks for that pete a real reply

No problem. From other posts sounds like many/most do it. I'll check with Ford in a couple weeks at the 3000K service and let the Forum know what they said.
